Studi Analisis Efisiensi Battery Pack pada Sistem PLTS Digunakan untuk Electric Vehicl

Abstract

The battery pack is the most important part of the electric vehicle, this condition requires the battery to work optimally and maintain its health. Battery pack is a combination of several batteries connected in series and parallel. PLTS (Pembangkit Listrik tenaga Surya) is an integral part of environmentally friendly energy. It is hoped that charging the battery pack can also use PLTS, so the migration to environmentally friendly energy must be carried out in total. Battery packs generally always use a BMS (Battery Management System). The function of the BMS is to be able to protect the battery when charging and discharging. Apart from the BMS, the active balancer is an important part of maintaining battery health, but not many battery packs are currently equipped with this active balancer. Active balancer is used to keep the battery voltage from one to the other there is not too big a difference. Therefore, in this study, trials were carried out on the condition of the battery pack when equipped with an active balancer and to identify the impact of not using an active balancer. With this active balancer can increase battery pack efficiency up to 12.05%.
